This would be a great item to use when testing failover, but unfortunately under 10.2.0.2 it only crashes my session, not the instance. Man, even bugs don't work properly in this release!

Hi,

something like that

create table t as (select * from dba_users minus select * from dba_users where mod(user_id,2) = 0 ) order by dbms_random.value

can crash You session in 9,10,11 and in 10.2.0.3 instance as well :). Dont ask me how do I know :)
